Choosing Kid Safe Toys

The Holidays are approaching and our thoughts turn to gifts for our loved ones. Do you have a toddler you’re shopping for? Make sure you are selecting safe toys for your children. You should always make sure you are choosing toys that are for their age and skill ability. It is frustrating for a two year old to try to play a game meant for a seven year old. Some toys may prove to be a safety hazard if it contains sharp edges. Small parts fit easily into a toddler’s mouth and could be a choking hazard. Small children and infants seem to automatically put items in their mouths.

Avoid any toy with sharp edges. A toy with a sharp edge can be a potential safety hazard if the tot has the toy and is walking or running. Again, they like to put things in their mouth, so a sharp toy could potentially damage their mouth.

Before you buy toys for your tot, check to see if they’ve been recalled. The U.S. consumer Product Safety Commission can tell you if a toy has been recalled that pose a serious safety threat to your tot. You can visit their website at www.cpsc.gov by calling a toll free number. That number is (800) 638-2772. You might be surprised when you find out some of the leading toy makers have recalled toys. It would be a good idea to check older toys that a child may have to be sure they are not on the recall list. The website will also give you the information on what to do with a toy that you have that is on the recall list.

Watch for those twisty ties that keep toys secure in their packages. They may keep them looking nice in the store but are a hazard as they are taken off the toy. They often have a small plastic backing between the cardboard and the tie. Even if your toddler’s toys don’t have these, an older sibling might receive a toy with them. They need to be properly discarded to avoid any danger to a younger child.

Do your research and buy the toys that are suitable to the age of your child.

Sleeping robots, old video games, wheelless remote-controlled cars… At some time or other, the useful lives of toys also come to an end. But what should we do with such electrical and electronic gadgets when they stop working? Joan Riba, head of the Fundació Ecotic, shows us the right containers to use for such waste and reveals why children are more sensible and better informed than adults when it comes to recycling toys.
